After Action Report
In Orlando, the Magic handled the Nets 98-85. Ugly basketball, but the Magic did just enough. Fresh off a statement win, the Magic stayed locked in; the Nets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Magic locker room is humming, and it showed. Magic's rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
